In tonight’s NCIS: LA episode, Callen was struggling to put together the seating chart for his wedding. His fiancé was no help. He wanted to limit his future father-in-law to just one plus one. Only Anna said that Arkady wanted to double his odds. He was a gambler. He was also a great admirer of the late Hugh Hefner.
They were once friends before Arkady was kicked out of the Playboy mansion for what he did in the grotto. Callen hadn’t wanted to hear the story and sadly there was no stopping Anna. She told him about the Britney Spears costume that came with a live boa constructor. And she would have said more if their band hadn’t cancelled on them at the last minute.
Two of the band members were involved in an accident. They wouldn’t be able to make the wedding and that was an issue because that band was the only one that the couple could agree on.
They still were struggling to put their wedding together when Admiral Killbride came calling. The Admiral called in everyone to assist the ATF. ATF SAC Kerry Adams has lost contact with one of her agents during the search for missing military grade weapons. The weapons were stolen. This missing agent had claimed he was getting close to finding them when suddenly he went dark.
The agent’s name is William Newsome. He’s gone dark before only he always pops up after a while. Adams was hoping he would do that again and at the same time she had NCIS assisting her people.
She needed to know if something happened to Newsome or if he switched sides. The latter seemed plausible after Newsome did his reappearance act. He popped up and said that his investigation might have gotten blown. He thought the thieves had undercover his true identity. He said he went dark to protect himself and that put NCIS in an uncomfortable position.
They wanted to find those weapons. The weapons were stolen from a military base in the first place that meant it was in their jurisdiction no matter what ATF thought, but they had to work with Newsome on top of investigating him. They had Newsome at the boat shed while Fatima and Roundtree were investigating him at headquarters.
Those two found out that Newsome had put his daughter into a private school. It was an expensive school. His daughter wasn’t there on scholarship nor did she receive any financial aide from either state or federal government to attend.
Newsome’s ex-wife also wasn’t working. She’s living on the support payments she gets from Newsome and somehow that was enough to afford a swanky school for their daughter. It was beginning to look like Newsome was dirty. That he got tired of watching people get rich from crime while he was working off a government salary. What they found wasn’t enough to prove he was taking the bribes. They had to keep digging even as the others were working with Newsome to recover the missing weapons.
Newsome told them that he had gotten close. He mentioned he came close to infiltrating the den of thieves and that he was caught before he could get proof that the weapons were even there. He told them about where the weapons were being moved. He arranged for Kensi and Deeks to take a bird’s eye approach to seeing the weapon from the hillside. The couple began worrying if they should move if they find any other evidence indicating he was dirty, but they got lucky. Newsome wasn’t paying for his daughter expensive school.
The daughter had a grandfather who put together a college fund for her when she was little. There was now enough money in there to see her all throughout her schooling. She didn’t even need to take out loans. Newsome’s ex wife wasn’t living outrageously. She was living a quiet life and so no one in his family were flushed with case. There was no evidence to indicate Newsome was dirty. Kensi and Deeks didn’t have to worry about their position or if Newsome will out them for a payday. Newsome was clean.
It was Adams that was dirty. Newsome’s boss was taking so much money for looking the other way that she no longer cares about that line the sand. She was the one that blew Newsome’s cover. She did it for a payday. Sam and Callen went to go arrest her. She was with another agent at the time and unfortunately he was also dirty. They began using all of their firepower to pin NCIS down in a position where they couldn’t fight back. And who knows what will happen next!
THE END!
